Professor Baldwin is a really good professor. She has good lectures, and has good projects and homework for her class. I would definitely take her class again.

Prof Baldwin is probably the most down to earth and professional instructor I’ve had at UMD(although its my first semester). The course is pretty easy but you do have to put a bit of work in for the quizzes to make sure you do well. You can prewrite answers and the lowest out of 4 quizzes is dropped. All the info you need is in lectures meaning you don’t need to do the 40 or so pages of textbook reading per week. Fun, entertaining, class and I’d recommend if you have interest in history of science.

One of the best humanities teachers at UMD! She's very considerate of your needs as a student, and is very helpful if you're having trouble understanding a concept. Given the way that it's taught (As of the time of this review), HIST204 in particular is an extremely interesting (and easy!) course. You're allowed to skip one of the major quizzes and you are essentially able to pre-write all of the quiz answers in advance and bring them into a test. If you're looking for a fun few credits, try her class.

I too this class 3 semesters ago and am only writing about it now because it is undoubtedly the best class I've had. You need to want to learn though

She’s one of the best professors I’ve taken at UMD. She is very cooperative and the class is very interesting. Definitely recommend.

Very good teacher, but quite a bit of work. There is a lot of small responses and some larger papers, as well as a few quizzes, but everything in his class is open book. If you actually do the assignments, its an easy A.
